A fiction show about a Korean American son (Joel Kim Booster) who wants to come out to his mom (Esther Moon), but can't because they don't speak the same language.
Maya Sugarman joins James Kim to talk about their new podcast, Magnificent Jerk, from Apple TV+ and Pineapple Street Studios.
The documentary series follows Maya on a journey to discover who her uncle really was. Starting with a box of his forgotten screenplays, the series sees her discovering that he was a member of a Chinese gang who went to jail before turning his life story into the Crazy Six screenplay (albeit with a few twists).
